Barang yang tertinggal dalam penerbangan, menjadi masalah umum bagi tiap traveler yang melakukan perjalanan dengan pesawat. Jangan kuatir, 4 tips berikut adalah jurus ampuh untuk menyikapinya.

Berpergian dengan pesawat memang menyenangkan. Anda dapat menghemat waktu dan mendapat fasilitas yang nyaman selama perjalanan. Akan tetapi, jika barang Anda tertinggal, atau malah pesawat tidak mengangkut koper milik Anda, itu adalah bencana. Hal ini dapat menghambat perjalanan Anda menuju destinasi berikutnya, atau menunda waktu Anda untuk beristirahat di rumah.

Disusun detikTravel, Jumat (1/6/2012), berikut 5 tips menyikapi barang yang tertinggal di pesawat:

1. Jangan panik

Jangan panik merupakan hal utama dan pertama yang harus Anda lakukan. Jangan berlarian tidak karuan atau menangis di dalam bandara. Perhatikan kembali dan cek apa saja barang Anda yang tertinggal. Sebaiknya, Anda langsung menemui petugas bandara setempat atau petugas maskapai penerbangan yang Anda tumpangi untuk melaporkan barang Anda yang tertinggal.

2. Jangan marah-marah

Mungkin, yang akan dilakukan Anda setelah mengetahui bagasi Anda tertinggal adalah marah-marah kepada petugas maskapai setempat. Meskipun barang-barang di bagasi Anda merupakan barang-barang berharga seperti laptop atau kamera, tapi tetaplah tenang dan kontrol emosi Anda. Ingat, marah-marah tidak akan menyelesaikan masalah.

3. Minta informasi yang jelas dari pihak maskapai

Setelah menghubungi dan bertemu dengan pihak maskapai, mintalah informasi sejelas-jelasnya. Jika Anda yang ceroboh meninggalkan barang, berikan informasi terakhir soal posisi barang Anda di pesawat, kepada pihak maskapai. Jika maskapai yang ceroboh tidak membawa koper Anda dari bandara asal, tanyalah bagaimana mereka akan mengantar koper Anda.

Informasi tersebut mengenai tentang kapan barang Anda akan kembali diantar. Tanyalah tentang detail kapan barang Anda dikembalikan.

Jangan lupa memberikan informasi mengenai Anda. Informasi tersebut mengenai tentang nomor penerbangan, jadwal penerbangan Anda, nomor kontak, dan perihal barang Anda yang tertinggal, agar memudahkan pihak maskapai dalam mengembalikan barang Anda yang tertinggal.

4. Update terus perkembangan dari pihak maskapai

Meski sudah mendapat informasi, jangan lupa untuk mendapat perkembangan terbaru mengenai bagasi Anda. Tidak ada salahnya Anda menelpon tiap waktu dan terus bertanya. Hal ini juga akan mengingatkan terus pihak maskapai.

Tips di atas merupakan jurus ampuh untuk mengatasi barang Anda yang tertinggal. Ingat, tetap waspada dan berhati-hati dalam menjaga barang sepanjang perjalanan.[from]

Kansas City's annual air show took to the skies again Sunday, a day after spectators were sent home when a stunt pilot crashed to the ground while performing loops and spirals in his small plane.


Thousands of spectators at the Kansas City Aviation Air Show fell into a hush after Jensen's plane hit the ground, and event organizers immediately shut performances down for the day. Jeff Caddell said he met Jensen four years ago and considered him to be an extraordinary pilot who loved interacting with people as much as he did flying.

"Bryan was nothing but a class act kind of guy. He loved people so much and loved seeing them have a great time," said Caddell, who organizes the annual Wings Over Ashville air show in Alabama. "I would see Bryan take special time out with the public to answer questions, and he did it on a level that made you feel special — unlike how some public figures do."





Authorities have not released Jensen's age and hometown. Caddell said Jensen often participated in air shows with his girlfriend, C.C. Gerner, who also is a stunt pilot. According to Gerner's website, she was scheduled to be at the Kansas City air show this weekend.

When The Associated Press reached Gerner by phone Sunday afternoon, she said she wasn't ready to talk about Jensen's crash. Jensen announced on his website, www.beastairshows.com , in January that he had been promoted to captain with Delta Airlines. A spokeswoman with Delta told the AP on Sunday she knew about his crash but couldn't confirm he worked for the airline because there was no human resources staff available to verify it.


"Bryan got on one knee to have a picture made with the boy and stayed kneeled down to talk with him for a bit," Caddell said. "That was Bryan. "Someone would come up to him and ask a basic question that a lot of people would hesitate to ask. He would take the time to answer on a level that anyone would understand. A lot of times other guys would blow you off."

The National Transportation Safety Board and Federal Aviation Administration are investigating the crash, but show director Ed Novallis said there's nothing to indicate that weather or other outside factors contributed to the crash.

Officials said Saturday's fatal crash was the first ever recorded at the Kansas City air show. Sunday's show went off without any problems. Secure from - (AP)
